I am trying to reach a weight loss goal in about 6 weeks and am wondering if my regular yoga workout will help me drop the pounds or if I need to add in some true cardio. Is yoga good for burning fat? Or more for just toning?

Yes, yoga can help you to burn fat, but I don't know if just yoga would be enough in the time frame of your goal. I would probably do yoga in addition to some cardio a few times a week. There are some good fat burning yoga routines as well as some great articles about yoga and weight loss at www.yoga.com.
